No One Should Go Hungry or Cold – Make a Difference
The homeless, elderly and vulnerable, struggling to survive in London, receive a nutritious meal and warm bedding.
Our Vision
We envision a world where no one has to go hungry or cold because of financial hardship. Access to food, warmth, and shelter are basic human rights, and we are committed to ensuring these essentials reach those most in need.

Support for Homeless and those impacted by food poverty
We produce and distribute around 500 healthy nutritious meals each week from produce that would otherwise go to waste and serve them to people experiencing food poverty in North and Central London. We also produce and distribute 150+ meals a month in Birmingham to the homeless and those in insecure housing.

Our workshops engage vulnerable individuals who rarely cooked at home, many with specific health concerns. Each session concludes with a communal meal, fostering social connection and addressing isolation, particularly among older people and children.
